Fircrest Bear & Rhodie Tour
The Fircrest Bear & Rhodie Tour is officially under way! We’ve brought back this Fircrest FUN blast from the past as a special edition of our Centennial Celebration!
Enjoy the whimsy of our Fircrest carved bears, starting with our majestic Murphy at the TOT LOT! We have over 50 carved bears (and a trio of pigs!) scattered around our community. And of course we have so many beautiful rhodies that create a magnificent backdrop! So take a casual stroll and seek out the bears and blossoms!
All the registered bears are marked with a red dot on the map! Paper copies of the map are available at the Fircrest Community Center. If you have a carved bear, but you aren’t on the map, please register by following this link. We’d love to add you!

2025 Events – Video Highlights
The 2025 Daddy Daughter Dance: A Secret Garden was truly a magical evening! As the couples slipped into the Secret Garden, it became a night surrounded by beautiful blossoms and filled with music, dancing, games, lip syncing dads, crafts, photo opps, face painting and refreshments.
The enchanting Garden Fairy floated about greeting our guests. And Murphy, looking dapper in his tux, had a blast dancing and posing for photos! It was truly a special event where a lifetime of special memories were made!
